In this study, our aim is to fabricate and characterize efficient substrates of surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) utilizing the field enhancement due to hot spots made by recently developed method of laser induced periodic surface structuring (LIPSS). LIPSS is a cost-effective technique for rapid processing of almost any materials compared to conventional lithography methods. Coating of a thin silver film on LIPSS applied substrate surface provides to observe the localized surface plasmon effect for SERS measurement with the use of Raman reporter molecules interacting with silver substrate at the plasmon frequency. In order to characterize the optical properties, diffuse and total reflectivity of the substrates will be measured. Among possible expected applications of such prepared substrates are photonic templates for thin film optoelectronic devices with strong field enhancement properties.

Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy of the plasmonic nanogratings obtained by Laser Induced Periodic Surface Structuring
Erkızan, Serena Nur; Bek, Alpan; Department of Physics (2023-1-31)
The research conducted in this study presents a novel method of generating highly sensitive Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) substrates by femtosecond laser writing techniques. Two different types of periodicity regimes are introduced by femtosecond laser-based nano-structuring of crystalline Silicon (Si) and generated patterns are classified as Low Spatial Frequency LIPSS (LSFL) and High Spatial Frequency LIPSS (HSFL). Quasi periodic, self-organized femtosecond laser written periodic nanostructur...
FABRICATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF SERS SUBSTRATES VIA LASER INDUCED PHOTOCHEMICAL SURFACE ROUGHENING OF SILICON
Akbıyık, Alp; Bek, Alpan; Department of Physics (2022-6-10)
In this thesis, Surface-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) substrates are fabricated using laser assisted chemical etching of silicon as a surface nanostructuring technique. As a novel method of control over the structuring parameters, the incident laser illumination is spatially modified via a Digital Micromirror Device (DMD) that enable fast and uniform fabrication of complex structures. Onto the photochemically nanostructured silicon surfaces, silver and gold films are deposited by thermal evaporation or...
Parameter estimation for instantaneous spectral imaging
Öktem, Sevinç Figen; Davila, Joseph M (2014-05-04)
Spectral imaging is a fundamental diagnostic technique in physical sciences with widespread application. Conventionally, spectral imaging techniques rely on a scanning process, which renders them unsuitable for dynamic scenes. Here we study the problem of estimating the physical parameters of interest from the measurements of a non-scanning spectral imager based on a parametric model. This inverse problem, which can be viewed as a multi-frame deblurring problem, is formulated as a maximum a posteriori (MAP)...
Laser Induced Periodic Surface Structured c-Si Solar Cell with more than 16% efficiency
Goodarzi, Arian; Candemir, Ozun; Nasser, Hisham; Borra, Mona Zolfaghari; Genc, Ezgi; Çiftpınar, Emine Hande; Bek, Alpan; Turan, Raşit; Pavlov, Ihor (2021-06-01)
Crystalline-Si (c-Si) based solar cells (SC) efficiency remains one of the most challenging part in photovoltaic industry. Besides of the thermodynamical limits, the optical losses due to indirect band-gap structure of the material require additional treatment which known as a photonic design of the SC surface [1]. Numerous manipulations are performed to increase the efficiency of commercial solar cells. In most of these methods, the main concept is increasing light interaction by the cell through chemical ...
The use of gold and silver nanoparticles for surface enhanced fluorescence (SEF) of Dyes
Öztürk, Tacettin; Volkan, Mürvet; Department of Chemistry (2010)
This study focuses on preparing surface enhanced fluorescence (SEF) substrates for use in the enhancement of the emission signal of rhodamine B and fluorescein dyes. Fluorescence spectroscopy has been widely utilized owing to its high sensitivity. SEF is a process where the interactions of fluorophores with the localized surface plasmons of metal nanoparticles results in fluorescence enhancement, increased photostability and rates of system radiative decay which leads to a decreased lifetime. One of the mos...
